These Famous WWE Wrestlers May Have Scared You in Their Heydays But Where are They Today?
Rodney Agatupu Anoaʻi aka Yokozuna
Many wrestling fans remember Yokozuna, the champion sumo wrestler representing Japan who fought in the WWE. However, Yokozuna was never actually a trained sumo wrestler, and he wasn’t even Japanese, but rather Samoan-American. Born Rodney Agatupu Anoaʻi, the wrestler carried the Japanese flag because he was managed by the wrestler known as Mr. Fuji. Not many know this, but Yokozuna actually hails from the Anoaʻi wrestling family, which includes Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. The two were actually cousins! Sadly Rodney died in 2000 because of an pulmonary edema, while he was in Liverpool, England for a wrestling match.
